Just watched it he went to grip round the head but didn't, He then gripped round his shoulders and body goes forward as Lynch goes down nothing in it at all

"RFL(eeds) in citing Wigan player before Cup Final against Leeds" shocker...!!!!


Bent as fook.

Hansen will miss the final. There are dark forces at work here and the fact they have found something to charge a Wigan player for means he is certain to be banned on a technicality.

I'm sure I read somewhere that Hauraki was fighting with a Harlequins player on Saturday. Presume this has just been ignored (on the advice of match adjudicator Hary Getherington)...

24mins 51secs = Hansen momentarily puts his arm around Lynch's neck pulling him back at the same he applies slight pressure to his lower back. Nothing sinister in it whatsoever but we are talking about the RFL (Rhino's For Life)

He'll get off.

After the Crusaders debacle, and half the coaches queuing round the block to call for a smaller league the last thing the RFL will want is yet more controversy by putting a player out of the Cup Final.

I've just watched it and I still say he'll get banned. How on God's earth can a tackle like that be looked at when Mcgoldrick could have crippled a player on saturday?

Mark my words though he will be banned because we are dealing with fools here.

He better had get off with just a warning. There really is nothing in it and Lynch doesn't react at all.

The RFL is so inconsistent - far worse incidents (even acts of thuggery) where players often get hurt go unpunished week after week.

I've been sat thinking about this over the past hour and after previously feeling confident he wouldn't be banned the Tuson incident started to ring like an alarm bell in my head.

I remember everyone's feelings being similar on that one yet he still got a ban. It worries me when people can't see much in an incident even though a guys been cited. If we can't see it but he's still been called up then it makes me think they'll have to justify calling him up with a ban.

I have scoured the 1st half in an objective way and I cannot find a single bad tackle from Hansen. This must seriously be a wind up from the RFL !!

There is 1 tackle that if I were a nit picking RFL idiot, I might try and de-rail the Wigan effort BUT FOOK ME there was nothing in it

Its the 1 just before the 25th minute, its an absolute joke.

OK Leeds fan in peace here......surely if they did ban him he would appeal and get the ban turned over anyway wouldnt he? I genuinely hope he doesnt get a ban because missing the cup final that way must be worse than missing it through an injury. I would add though this is the RFL and god knows how the disciplinary guys come to some of their decicions sometimes!
